Shenzhen, China's first special economic zone, has set aside 300 million yuan (US$36 million) to support the education development in three regions in western China.
Guizhou and Gansu provinces as well as the Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region each received 100 million yuan (US$12 million), which will be used to help poor senior high school and college students to finish their education.
People in Shenzhen believe that developed regions should offer help to less developed areas in the country. It was during a recent inspection journey led by heads of the government of Shenzhen to western regions in China that the educational fund was established.
